Answer to Problem 51SGR

Number of quarters: 10

Number of dimes: 15

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Value of 25 coins both dimes and quarter is $4.00.

Concept used:

Assume separate variables for each object. Form two equations with the variables. Use elimination method and solve the system of equations.

Calculation:

Let x be the number of quarters and y be the number of dimes.

We know that the value of a quarter is $0.25 and the value of a dime is $0.10.

The total number of coins in the piggy bank is 25.

  x+y=25 ……………………… (1)

The value of 25 coins is $4.00 while the value of dime is $0.10 and the value of quarter is $0.25

  0.25x+0.10y=4.00 …… (2)

Multiplying (2) with 4,

  x+0.40y=16 ……………… (3)

Subtracting (3) from (1),

            x+y=25x0.40y=16      0.6y=9

Dividing 0.6 on both sides,

  0.6y0.6=90.6y=9×100.6×10y=906y=15

Substituting the value of y in (1),

  x+15=25

Substituting 15 on both sides,

  x+1515=2515x=10

Conclusion:

The piggy bank has 10 quarters and 15 dimes.
